Chaos.: Where dreams, disasters, and money collide. Quotes

“Business Plan is the fairy tale you tell investors to get money, even if you have zero clue how you’ll execute. Business Plan is less about what you know and more about what you hope will happen if the stars align and your competitors suddenly forget how to compete. Business Plan is less a plan and more a prayer; so pour yourself a strong coffee and start writing.”

“The pivot is the official startup way of saying, “Well, that didn’t work, so now we’re going to pretend this was the plan all along.” Investors are conditioned to love pivots: because it means you’re still trying, even if you have no idea where you’re going. So go ahead, pivot like your startup’s life depends on it, because, spoiler, it probably does.”

“Runway is the time you have left before your startup starves to death. It’s the number of months, weeks, or days your company can survive on the cash you have before you run out and everyone realizes your “brilliant idea” wasn’t so brilliant after all.”

“KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) are arbitrary numbers that make you feel productive. It’s corporate astrology: you stare at charts and dashboards, interpret the signs, and declare, “We’re growing!” while quietly ignoring the fact that revenue is flat. If you’re hitting all your KPIs and still not growing, they’re just three letters that make you feel busy while you slowly fail.”
